I knew were this was when I read the op, I just did not think we'd get there so soon.....

so when did he marry? And he had undiagnosed cancer.....that it become malignant and killed him while in custody all in shot it of course so ridiculous its not worth calculating but you like that slant it appears....if he had died at home would that have made you feel better? Would the story even have made the news?

yea well, here’s an idea, why don't we extend health care coverage to every person here on a visa too? I mean our citizens don’t have universal health care but we’ll cover those in Mr Ng’s shoes…..
